  Ms. BUSH. Mr. Speaker, due to a medical emergency, I was unable to 
vote during today's vote series. Had I been present, I would have voted 
``nay'' on rollcall No. 187.
  Mrs. LEE of Nevada. Mr. Speaker, during rollcall Vote number 187 on 
H.J. Res. 27, my vote was recorded as a ``yea'' when I intended for it 
to be a ``nay.'' Let the record reflect that I oppose H.J. Res. 27.


                          personal explanation

  Mrs. BOEBERT. Mr. Speaker, I had to fly back home to be there for the 
birth of my first grandchild. Had I been present, I would have voted 
``yea'' on rollcall No. 185, ``yea'' on rollcall No. 186, and ``yea'' 
on rollcall No. 187.


                          personal explanation

  Mr. KILDEE. Mr. Speaker, I am unable to attend votes due to a medical 
procedure. Had I been present, I would have voted ``nay'' on rollcall
